Information

The Orlando VA Medical Center, serving an area of nearly 90,000 Veteran patients in East Central Florida, is one of seven members of the VISN 6 Healthcare System. The Orlando VA Medical Center includes the Orlando VA Medical Center, the Community Living Outpatient Clinic, and four Community Based Outpatient Clinics in Clermont, Kissimmee, Leesburg, and Orange City. The east central Florida veteran population is slated for a new hospital to be built in 2012. This much needed facility will make it easy for east central Florida veterans to access VA's world class medical center and relieve the burden of traveling long distances for their impatient care. The Orlando VA Medical Center offers a unique internship opportunity for students to work with veterans ranging in age from 18-100. The role of the Social Work Services is to provide comprehensive bio-psychosocial services to veterans and their families in both outpatient and inpatient settings including primary care, geriatrics, mental health, community based outreach, and homeless programs.
